Company History Ever since the invention of the fire pump, firefighters have been plagued with the difficulty of obtaining correct nozzle pressures for nozzles. Based on a simple and reliable design, Task Force Tip nozzles solve this dilemma by constantly adjusting to the varying pressures of the hoseline. First developed by Clyde McMillan, the Company is still managed with the personal touch of the McMillan family. Over the years, many additional products have evolved to make firefighting more effective and safer for firefighters around the world. As a result, the company which first started in the family basement has grown many times to meet the expanding market demands.

A constant interest in staying on the leading edge of technology, the in-depth use of computerization at all levels, and strong desire for continuing innovative research and development, has made Task Force Tips one of the leading companies in the fire industry.

Task Force Tips moved into its present facility in April of 1987. We are continually adding additional computerized machines and support equipment to our plant. Additional personnel have been hired for our production and assembly divisions with an outlook for additional employees in the future. We have sales in all parts of the United States and over thirty (30) foreign countries.

It was in working with the Gary Fire Task Force that Chief Clyde McMillan, founder of Task Force Tips arrived at the idea of an automatic nozzle, which he drew on a Sunday morning back in 1968 with a paper napkin and a red felt pen. Shortly thereafter, the McMillan family basement became a small business and Task Force Tips was born.
